Back to business - Wunmi's comeback in Epe
Wunmi lost a freezer and scales to a break-in and needs $250 to reopen a fish stall and support the family.
🇳🇬 Epe, Lagos, Nigeria1,410 views
For fifteen years I have run a fish stall in Epe. In July, a break-in took a freezer and scales. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Tuesday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 3 weeks.
This business pays my children's school fees and rent. I have already started working from home in small ways, but I can't meet orders without proper equipment.
Every contribution brings me closer to reopening, and I promise to post photos as I buy each item.
I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go.
Where the $250 goes:
• Working capital for the first month: $45
• Shop repairs and licensing: $80
• Replacing a freezer and scales: $125
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

sending love. Your post was clear and honest. After 23 years in engineering I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Greetings from Epe!
Hope things get better soon. Your post was clear and honest. I'll check back for the next update.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Wudil
